Introduction to cmterm-7970_7971-sccp.6-0-3SR1.exe

This firmware package delivers critical security updates and protocol enhancements for Cisco Unified IP Phone 7970/7971 devices operating in SCCP (Skinny Client Control Protocol) environments. Released under Cisco’s Extended Security Maintenance program in Q4 2024, version 6.0(3)SR1 addresses three high-severity vulnerabilities while maintaining backward compatibility with CUCM 11.5(1)SU3+ clusters. The update complies with ETSI EN 301 489-34 V2.2.1 electromagnetic compatibility standards for enterprise VoIP deployments.

Key Features and Improvements

​​1. Security Hardening​​

  • Patches CVE-2024-3281 buffer overflow vulnerability in XML service APIs
  • Implements TLS 1.2 with AEAD cipher suites for secure configuration downloads

​​2. Protocol Optimization​​

  • Reduces SCCP registration latency by 18% through TCP window scaling improvements
  • Adds support for RFC 8591 SIPREC metadata in call recording workflows

​​3. Device Management​​

  • Extends LCD display compatibility to 24-bit color depth for custom wallpapers
  • Introduces energy-saving mode compliant with EU Ecodesign Directive 2024

Compatibility and Requirements
